Match of the Day or Football First

[J-Rod]

Hey for the past few years I've been a loyal supporter of Match of the Day, but ive always wondered was Football First any good and was it worth my time watching. I'm a Man Utd supporter so is it worth my time watching Football First or for overall coverage should I continue to watch Match of the Day as I like the pundits, commentary etc as well as watching the other games. What do you guys think?

[Sir Alan LCSugar]

I don't have a long attention span and can get bored during full matches so i tend to watch Match of the Day. I also like the team they have fronting the program, guys like Linekar and Hanson really know what their talking about.

[Grounded Wingman]

Football First is great if you just want to watch lengthy highlights of your own teams game, but the short general highlights section at the end is crap.

I watch matches live on Sky but catch up on the rest of the Premiership games on Match Of The Day, which usually has 3 or 4 games covered to a decent degree and shows all the goals from the other games.

[The Kraig]

I always watch Football First because I can pick which games I want to see. Unless BBC do that now too? And Soccer AM almost always remind me of any Sky football I want to see.

Can't wait for Soccer Saturday to come back.

[Farmer Reil]

MotD. I watch every week, and rarely if ever watch any full games. I just don't have time and, to be honest, don't have the interest either. Also, like everyone else said, the MotD pundit team is great (other than Alan Shearer).

Match Of The Day 2 on a Sunday evening is best cos it's more casual and more of a laugh and Adrian Chiles is king of humour.

Watch 'The Premiership' on RTE instead.

There's nothing better than a bunch of bitter old irishmen ripping the piss outta everyone and anyone, for no particular reason. (Y)

Plus John Giles slates Man Utd at every oppurtunity because they got rid of him and never really played him that much... Ah, cleaning your laundry on television! Brilliant!

[IAceI]

If you're a Man Utd fan, chances are your teams highlights will last the same on either program really.

Eamon Dunphy FTW

Meh, Football First annoys me as I have Virgin and not Sky.

MOTD. say no more.

BUT...

Do not miss Soccer AM, has to be watched.

[Turbo Yannis]

I really don't think Soccer AM will be the same without Lovejoy. Plus, I don't really like the guy they're got to replace him.

[The Kraig]

I hate Goldstein. He did the UKTV coverage of the World Cup and does the All Sport Show with Helen.

But still, at least we still have Miss Chamberlain and the rest of the nutjobs like Sheephead, etc.

[therockbox]

I was watching Lovejoy's new show on Channel Five (covering the MLS) on Saturday and all of the staff are from Soccer AM. The only person that wasn't there was Tubes, so I don't know whethey they're still on the show as well.

[The Kraig]

No!!

Damn Five to heck. To HECK. I hope Soccer AM comes back as Football AM or something then, that's always bugged me. Soccer Saturday's fine, that's just witty alliteration, like Super Sunday. (¬_¬)

[wozzi]

I've always watched MOTD but occasionally watch Football First if my team win well and I want to see more action than what MOTD show.

[Baddar]

I don't think MOTD should be compared to Football First.

I prefer the highlights on MOTD, especially when I know the results of the game earlier in the day. Kind of pointless watching the whole 90 minutes in a game that you know the result of (That doesn't involve the team you support obviously)

But, personally, I think Goals on Sunday is the one to watch.

[Thomas]

I Sky+ record the Everton game from Football First so I can watch the whole game sometime during the week/end. Before that I'll watch Match of the Day.
